Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women worldwide. Patients with breast cancer are often diagnosed at later stages and have a strong desire for breast conservation, necessitating neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Tumors of different molecular subtypes and individual variations among patients lead to significant differences in treatment efficacy. Precise assessment of patients' responses to treatment regimens is imperative in advancing prognosis of breast cancer. In this study, 58 patients diagnosed with breast cancer and scheduled for neoadjuvant therapy will be recruited. Patient-derived organoids from their tumor biopsies will be utilized to evaluate the sensitivity of chemotherapy regimen. These drugs primarily include Doxorubicin, Carboplatin, Cyclophosphamide, Paclitaxel, as well as targeted therapies such as Herceptin and Pertuzumab.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

58 early-stage breast cancer patients scheduled to undergo neoadjuvant therapy will be recruited. Baseline information including medical history, ultrasound, Breast-Specific Gamma Imaging (BSGI), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) records, will be collected both before and after two cycles of chemotherapy. Tumor tissue from these patients will be obtained via biopsies guided by ultrasound. Patient-derived organoids (PDOs) will be established and cultured from the collected tumor tissue. Subsequently, these PDOs will be subjected to treatment with drugs from standard chemotherapeutic regimens for breast cancer. The growth of the organoids will be assessed post-treatment, and dose-response curves will be generated. For evaluating the clinical outcomes of the patients, the Residual Cancer Burden (RCB) system will be used to evaluate tumor histological responses in patients. The consistency between treatment responses observed in the PDO models and the clinical outcomes of patients will be evaluated through correlation analysis.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Breast cancer patients

Patients diagnosed with breast cancer undergo biopsy before initiating neoadjuvant therapy.

Biopsy

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Before initiating neoadjuvant therapy, patients diagnosed with breast cancer undergo a tumor biopsy. The tissue obtained from the biopsy is utilized to establish organoids and conduct drug testing.
